Predicts New Lebanon Invasion After Collapse of Syria

Speaking to journalists today, Israeli Brigadier General Hertzi Halevy predicted another Israeli invasion of Lebanon would come soon, likely following in the wake of the collapse of the Assad regime in Syria.

Israelis promising another invasion of Lebanon is hardly news, of course, and the real meat of the interview comes when Halevy promised bloody attacks on dense populated areas, adding that “the damage will be enormous.”

“The Goldstone report will pale in comparison to what will be here next time,” Halevy said, referring to the 2009 UN report faulting Israeli war crimes in the Gaza Strip and documenting the large number of civilians killed.

Israel last invaded Lebanon in summer of 2006, killing a large number of civilians including some particularly ugly incidents involving killing scores of children in Qana and bombing of a house full of Canadian civilians who were vacationing at the time of the invasion.

…and all the while the "international community" will wring its hands helplessly once again at Israeli barbarism…(announcing you will target non-combatants?? WTF, you terrorist!?) and we pretend America cannot do a thing about the abortion it has armed and fed for 50 years…ok, right…

Israel’s invasions of Lebanon have always ended in retreat, thanks to Hezbollah, and the next one would be no different.

Hopefully, the forces of war, lies, and deceptions would be defeated in Syria, and the Israeli general’s self-incriminating bluff of causing genocide would not happen.

Israel and its puppet, the US, have shown to be the two terrorist countries in the world. Whereas Cuba sends 2000 doctors to help cure the poor in other countries, the US has over 700 military bases all over the world. Who the fok do you think you can fool?

Israeli Defense Forces have time and again shown a propensity for cowardly attacks on civilians. Lebanon Gaza are large examples, daily west bank evictions, water occupations and crop damage. IDF frontlines are friable. High tech genocide is their only tool.

It is the israeli civilians who will flee in hoardes to set up a national downfall

So every bit of earthworm goldstone report was accurate and should it happen america will keep sending weapons of mass destruction to murder more Palestinians/Lebanese we all know how debased israel and america are but these murderers have to be put down as common animals.

Spoken like someone who doesnt live there. Others do, and dont want to be decimitated by massive bombs and an inevitable civil war that will accompany this invasion. So, no thank you – keep the fuck out.

I fear for the Lebanese people; I know the Army and Hezbollah will do their best to protect their people, but it's a given that some- probably many- civilians will die at the hands of the Israelis. When- not if, but when- the shooting starts my support will be squarely behind Lebanon and its defenders.

Well, I for one will expand that to include whoever sucks my country dry, lies through their teeth, manipulates my country into war, gets dozens of standing ovations from congress to do it, gleefully seeking to starve Gazans, Persians, …. . Well, yes it does seem pointless to expand the list after all…

It is shocking that this Israeli general should be threatening or predicting in advance that his nation will be committing unspeakable war crimes against another people. This suggests that the IDF is waiting for Syria to fall before going in to clean out Hezbollah and everyone else in the vicinity, so that Israel will be able to continue to commit war crimes on a daily basis against the Palestinians. It will be genocide, and Halevy's comments are blatant evidence of the requisite intent; and, if the Administration doesn't prevent it, our nation will be complicit in another war crime.

The only real terrorist natiuon in the Middle East is Israel – always has been – read the Old Testament – and the army of Joshua went into Jericho and killed every man women child, and all of the livestock.

If they do this they will not be able to stand behind an excuse that it was an accident – the civilians were not supposed to be there – just coincidence. Having stated an intent to target civilians even the US will have to reassess their "We got your back" dictum. One of the driving forces behind the development of the War Crimes Act/Treaties was due to what was done during WWII. It is time the Israelis are brought to task for their brazen disregard for uncivilized and criminal acts. Their thin excuses that it was for the survival of their home are useless when they thumb their noses at the rest of the world.

Then the Israelies wonder why the rest of the ME countries hate them so much. Duh! Israel wouldnt be talking tough without US munitions period. The pro-Israeli MSM will cover it up. However, I wonder when the tipping point will come when the West finally says 'enough' to Israel and their lobby groups.

We have Republicans passing laws saying the US is not to have anything to do with international or foreign law in US lawmaking and then has Knesset MPs writing bills says it all. We aren't even a sovereign country anymore due to the treason of Congress. Israel isn't the 51st state, we are just another occupied territory.

I am surprised the usual Zionist agents haven't been propagandizing on this yet.

I love Hezbollah and I am a retired field grade US Army officer. Too bad the Saudi al Qaeda fighters did not have their courage and professionalism. The al Qaeda fighters are nothing more than murderers of women, children and non-combatants. When these Sunnis see the IDF they run. Yet, Hezbollah stands its ground under blazing fire and engages the enemy. If the Sunnis fought like this instead of the House of Saud colluding with Zionists and the US, then the Palestinians would be free and Israel contained. It was funny to see how the Israeli news lied so badly that Israelis started watching Al Jazeera to find out the truth about how many tanks they were losing and having to tow back to Israel. So go ahead and slaughter more civilians because more and more Americans are turning against Israel and now understand the stupidity of Christian Zionists. If you get a chance Google "The Foolish Dogma and Logic Of Christian Zionists".

Avi you know the mainstream narrative is just the opposite it's only terrorism if done by non state actors, and waved away when done the STATE of Israel or the STATE of the U.S. How's the weather in Tel Aviv? Are you are least getting paid to C & P canned Hasbara?

"Today I have realized that the UN experiment of taking Palestinian Sovereignty and appropriating it's lands for displaced european Jews to be an abject failure. Their apartheid Jewish Warfare State has become a rogue nuclear welfare case demanding ever greater tribute with threats such as these or they threaten to destroy ever more innocent lives, families and their homes. Therefore I will be requesting that the UN begin to reverse the process."

What other civilized state blithely announces it's most moral army in the world will deliberately attack defenseless civilians with impunity? And what does that say about you that you obviously support it?
Take a walk you Nazi-terrorist loving dimwit.

it just goes to show you why so many reasonable jewish people are distancing themselves from these Israeli animals by the busload. Who wants to be associated with these disgusting, warmongering, supremacist cretins?

"Israelis promising another invasion of Lebanon is hardly news, of course, and the real meat of the interview comes when Halevy promised bloody attacks on dense populated areas, adding that “the damage will be enormous.”"

The Israeli army never hesitated to attack civilians in the past, so there's nothing new here!

There will be major stories on the news about how the poor Israelis have to stay in their bomb shelters because of the danger of Hezbollah missiles. The Israelis will come out looking like the poor picked-on victims.

For Israel it's not enough that they kill innocent people, they have to be able to brag about it before the whole world, especially now that their 'war on Islam' has taken over the American psyche and has become the driving force for America's Armed Forces.

This Israeli general has fired thefirst shot to empty and ethicly cleanse southern lebanon of its population. When Israel invades and starts a war it will carpet bomb southern Lebanon (with American made and paid for bunker buster bombs). Israel will then occupy and settle up to the Latani river. During the Israeli army bombing, Israel will humanly anounce, with load speackers, for the local residents to leave to escape injury, but will not provide a pause for them to flee. The anouncement to flee is only to be used and reported latter in the mass media to show that the slaughter was not Israel's fault.
Israel has learned of the problems of native people remaining (Pals) when ethnic cleansing is not done completely. (Read former Israeli PM M. Began's 1950's autobiograph "the Revolt")

This means that Israeli civilians can and should be targeted as well. Let's see them cry for dead Chosenites while murdering civvies in Beirut and be taken seriously. Miserable, warmongering Nazi B**tards
